Performance of 5005 Aluminum Sheet:
5005 aluminum sheet belongs to 5-series Al-Mg alloy, but the content of the main alloy Mg is less than that of other 5-series alloy sheets, so it has a slightly higher corrosion resistance than the 3-series alloy. Among them, the performance of 5005 aluminum alloy is similar to that of 3 series 3003 aluminum alloy, with moderate strength, good fusion, processing and formability, but its anodic oxidation effect is better than that of 3003 aluminum alloy, the oxide film is brighter, and can achieve the same color as that of 6063 alloy. Therefore, 5005 aluminum sheet is commonly used for high-end wide-format curtain wall panels, architectural ornaments, vehicle interior materials, instrument panel, oxidizing materials, cooking utensils, conductors and other aspects.
Chemical Composition of 5005 Aluminum Sheet (%):
| Alloy | Si | Fe | Cu | Mn | Mg | Cr | Zn | Al |
| 5005 | ≤0.3 | ≤0.7 | ≤0.2 | ≤0.2 | 0.5-1.1 | ≤0.1 | ≤0.25 | remainder |
Mechanical Properties of 5005 Aluminum Sheet:
| Temper | Ultimate Tensile Strength | Ultimate Yield Strength | Shear Strength | Elongation |
| 5005-O | 158 MPa / 23,000 psi | 131 MPa / 19,000 psi | 96 MPa / 14,000 psi | 5.3% |
Features & Applications of 5005 Aluminum Sheet:
1. General Features: 5005 is a non-heat treatable alloy with magnesium content. It can be strengthened (hardened) by cold working. It scores well in weld-ability, formability, and corrosion resistance (especially when anodized).
2. Forming: 5005 has excellent formability, especially in softer tempers.
3. Welding: 5005 alloy is noted for excellent welding characteristics. When 5005 material will be welded and then anodized, we recommends a 5356 welding wire for best color uniformity. Weld discoloration can still occur, but it is less severe than other welding alloys.
4. Machining: 5005 machinability is generally fairly poor. Soft 5005 tempers machine worse than harder tempers. 5005 H34 and 5005 H38 can be machined, but with much more difficulty than many other aluminum alloys.
5. Application: ship building plate, tank trailer, oil tank, caner end, ring pull, auto body sheet, auto inner plate, anti-slip checkered plate, container, tank car, mold, storage tank, marine facilities etc.
Packing & Delivery of 5005 Aluminum Sheet:
